There are provided an apparatus, a method, and an autonomous moving body which allow a recognition target to be notified with certainty that the recognition target is recognized by an autonomous moving body. A recognition result presenting apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure detects a recognition target (person) present within a predetermined range from an automatic driving vehicle and presents, to the detected recognition target (person), the result of recognition indicating that the automatic driving vehicle recognizes the recognition target (person).

The warning device (12) includes a warning light mechanism (16), that is configured so as to emit a flashing strobe light (20) that flashes at a frequency that is higher than 10 Hz.

A vehicle computing system may implement techniques to emit warning sounds from a vehicle to notify other entities in an environment with the vehicle of the vehicle operation. A vehicle computing system may be configured to emit warning sounds based on a speed associated with the vehicle. The vehicle computing system may determine a planned vehicle trajectory and that a speed corresponding to the planned vehicle trajectory is associated with the warning sound emission. The vehicle computing system may determine a time that the vehicle will be at the speed and may emit the warning sound substantially at the time. In some examples, the vehicle computing system may emit a different sound prior to the time and may transition to the warning sound associated with the speed at the time. By warning other entities of the vehicle operation, the warning sound emission system may improve the safety of vehicle operation.

A vehicle is provided to improve driving and pedestrian safety. The vehicle includes a position receiver that receives a position of the vehicle and a communicator that receives map information including Green Zone position information. A controller operates the vehicle to travel in a Green Zone mode from a section start point of a Green Zone to a section end point of the Green Zone when it is predicted that the vehicle enters the Green Zone from the position of the vehicle received from the position receiver.

A vehicle lighting system includes an illuminated grille assembly. The illuminated grille assembly includes a plurality of grille bars each having at least one light source. A control system is configured to control the illuminated grille assembly to emit combinations of lighting effects from the plurality of grille bars for indicating a plurality of visually distinctive operating behaviors of the vehicle.

A system included and a computer-implemented method performed in an autonomous-driving vehicle are described. The system performs: detecting one or more movable objects; determining a target movable object from the one or more detected objects; determining a manner of generating a directed alert notification selectively toward the target movable object; and causing a directed alert notification of the determined manner to be generated toward the target movable object.
